Production of 9th KAFA+ Next D. A 6-year- old Dong Hui and his parents leave Seoul for a hospital for the elderly in the suburbs. There, while the adults are unattentive, Dong Hui helps his great-grandfather to escape from the hospital. The great-grandfather, who thinks he is 16 years old, is from Pyongan-do, North Korea and he tries to return home to find his mother whom he left in the middle of Korean war. Dong Hui goes with his great- grandfather on his journey. Sad memories of the Korean war are brought out as the two boys hallucinate in a reed field in the white winter. In the background of a 3D cinematographed reed field, the ensemble performance of the old man and the boy are eye-catching.
